For a transmitted power level below tlireshold, the operation of blocks 220, 230, 240 may be repeated. If the transmitted power level is above tlireshold 160 (block 240), an alarm may be provided to the operator (block 250).
Although the scope of the present invention is not limited in this respect, the alarm may be, for example, light, sound, vibrations and the like. Alternatively, an animated picture may be displayed, or the temperature of cellular-phone transceiver 100 may be increased or decreased. Furthermore, the type of alarm and the behavior of the alarm may be selected by the operator of cellular-phone transceiver 100. For example, if an audible alarm was selected the operator may select the tone and/or the melody of the audible alarm.
While certain features of the invention have been illustrated and described herein, many modifications, substitutions, changes, and equivalents will now occur to those skilled in the art. For example, the use of an adaptive function for varying a phase and amplitude of an output signal may be used in many devices other then transmitters.
